<p>She made a huge splash on the music scene with the release of her infectious debut single “Whip My Hair. Now at the ripe old age of 10, Willow Smith is back for seconds as she croons on her aptly-titled follow-up single, &#8220;21st Century Girl.&#8221;</p>
<p>Willow delivers another high-energy dance song that will have tween girls and adult women elbowing for room on the dance floor. </p>

<p>For those not in-the-know, Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith, hip-hop impressario Jay-Z, and Will&#8217;s Overbrook Productions have reached an agreement to feature Will and Jada&#8217;s stylista daughter, &#8220;Whip My Hair&#8221; singer Willow Smith, in movie musical remake of Carol Burnett&#8217;s 1981 box office hit <em>Annie</em>. (Epic Fail, mind you&#8230;)</p>
<p>But not everyone is ecstatic over the recent Hollywood exposure of Jada and Will&#8217;s spawns, including son Jaden, who starred in a remake of <em>The Karate Kid</em> just last summer. Bestselling author Terry McMillan has incited the wrath of Smith fanatics on Twitter after posting a series of disparaging remarks about the showbusiness fam on her feed this week.</p>
<p>Do you agree?</p>

<p>After &#8220;Whipping Her Hair&#8221; into her first bonafide hit single, Willow Smith&#8217;s ready to try her hand at being a &#8220;21st Century Girl!&#8221; </p>
<p><span id="more-21583"></span></p>
<p>We know the cute-as-a-button celebutot of Will and Jada can make you sing along with her addictive songs, but now Willow wants to make you dance!</p>
<p><em>“Hey people I am so excited for my next single!! Are you?”</em> 10-year-old Willow wrote on Facebook over the weekend. “<em>It’s a dance record. I know you love to dance, don’t cha’…”</em></p>
<p>Before signing off, Willow added<em>: “I wanted to share a sneak peak of my next single with my Facebook friends…hope you like it.&#8221;</em></p>
<p> A video shoot for &#8220;21st Century Girl&#8221; is already underway in a private location in Southern California. The single will featured on Willow&#8217;s as-of-yet-untitled debut album due out on Jay-Z&#8217;s Roc Nation label later this year! </p>

<p>Willow Smith is being courted to take center stage in a remake of the classic movie musical <em>Annie, <a href="http://www.cinemablend.com/new/will-smith-remaking-annie-with-his-daughter-and-jay-z-22721.html">Variety</a></em> has learned. </p>
<p><span id="more-21554"></span></p>
<p>Willow&#8217;s famous dad, actor Will Smith, is exploring the idea of remaking a new version of the 1982 film &#8211; about a young girl who sings her way through life in an orphanage &#8211; with Sony following the success of son Jaden&#8217;s summer remake of <em>The Karate Kid</em> with Jackie Chan. That film grossed more than $350 million worldwide.</p>
<p>Will would produce the <em>Annie</em> reboot through his Overbrook Production Company. Hip-hop mogul Jay-Z &#8211; who signed Willow to his Roc Nation label late last year &#8211; has asked to collaborate on music for the film, the trade paper adds. As hardcore hip-hop heads may recall, Jay-Z created a hip-hop version of &#8220;Hard Knock Life,&#8221; one of the best-known songs featured in the stage show, for his 1998 <em>Vol. 2&#8230;Hard Knock Life</em> LP. </p>
<p>Willow has appeared alongside her father in the 2007 film <em>I Am Legend</em> and also voiced the character of Baby Gloria in animated movie <em>Madagascar 2</em>.</p>
<p>Though <em>Little Orphan Annie</em>, the comic strip that started it all, was discontinued after more than 70 years last summer, <em>Annie</em> is set for a revial on Broadway next year. The show won a Best Musical Tony Award back in 1977. </p>

<p>Who needs math when you&#8217;ve been invited to tour Europe with Justin Bieber! Cute-as-button pop tart Willow Smith, 10, says ever since she rose to fame with her hit single &#8220;Whip My Hair&#8221; she no longer has time to go to school and her grades have begun to slip. </p>
<p><span id="more-21221"></span></p>
<p><em>“I never really get to go to school because I am always on tour, or with my father. There is a tutor most of the time, but usually I am working so I never get to do the lessons. The worst thing about maths is all the kids are ahead of me because they go to school.”</em></p>

<p>Willow will join Justin Bieber on the next leg of his sold-out My World Tour.</p>
<p>The 16-year-old pop singer, one of the world&#8217;s hottest stars of the moment, personally requested that Willow join him on the European stretch of the tour, which begins in March, after the two performed together at the Staples Center in Los Angeles last month. </p>

<p>One child&#8217;s burning up the pop charts with her debut single. The other became a box office draw with the release of the summer motion picture remake <em>The Karate Kid</em>.</p>
<p>But are Will and Jada pushing their kids too the brink of destruction?</p>
<p><span id="more-21144"></span></p>
<p>They haven&#8217;t even hit their teenage years yet, but pint-sized stars Willow and Jaden Smith already strike poses on the red carpet like a couple of seasoned showbiz professionals.</p>
<p>Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith&#8217;s two kids have been close to the spotlight for years, but in the last few months they&#8217;ve both suddenly shot to stardom with Jaden, 12, appearing alongside martial artist Jackie Chan and Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson in The Karate Kid and 10-year-old Willow releasing her first single &#8212; the infectious &#8220;Whip My Hair.&#8221;</p>
<p>But some friends of the couple say it&#8217;s all too much, too soon.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Will and Jada expect only the best from their children, there is very little room for failure. They’re a very competitive, high-performing family,&#8221;</em> a well-placed Smith source told Britain&#8217;s <em>Daily Mail</em> Thursday. <em>&#8220;It’s almost like the kids have never known what it’s really like to be a child. They were launched straight into the limelight. A lot of their friends think it is way too much too soon.&#8221;</em></p>
